What would this dream about my ex-boyfriend mean?

I lived with a guy for 1 1/2 years and early last year he broke up with me and kicked me out, but I was unable to leave our apartment until mid-April because I had no job, money, or place to go until then. Of course I still love the guy and he is on my mind a lot, but this is the first time in that year that I have had such vivid dreams about him.

In these dreams I had, we ended up in the same places a lot (not on purpose; it was just that we knew the same people and were ending up in the same places). He eventually came up to me asking to talk to me. Then he later told me that he misses me (as he hugs me). Then the next thing I see is us in a bed--him under the covers, me on top of them with some cats (which is strange since he is highly allergic to them) and someone else is in the room. Once the person leaves, he asks me to go up to him. I do and he holds me, kisses me, tells me that he is sorry for how he treated me. What does this mean? Is he just on my mind a lot or what?

Update:

It has been almost a year now since I left our apartment. Could this have something to do with these dreams? Or could it mean something more than him just being on my mind? Or is it just wishful thinking of him apologizing to me and wanting me back? I am confused but also kind of calm after these dreams. It is really strange.

    Quick: think of three qualities your ex has.

    Then look at those qualities in yourself and realize there is a big part of yourself that you need to love and give love to. That is the hug part. The sleeping together part is that these part of you need to integrate, and they are starting to. You are starting to forgive yourself (the telling you how sorry about how he treated you).

    The cats are small bad habits that could keep that from happening.

    So this is a dream on moving forward in your life, of examining and removing anything that could keep that from happening, and of forgiving yourself for mistakes made.

    It has nothing to do with him personally. It is a very positive dream, however.

    Nearly all dreams are expressions of either fear(s) or desire(s). In your case, it appears to be the latter (desire). By your own admission, you still love him. You probably think of him during the day both consciously and subconsciously. If a significant part of our day is consumed by a certain activity or thought(s), we also tend to dream about those things. For example, if you spend a entire day water-skiing, there is a good chance you will also dream about it and tie to it, a desire or fear. Thus, there are 2 reasons for your dreams about him: 1) He occupies your thoughts and 2) you still have desires related to him. If you move forward in your life and other things and people increase in importance in your life, you will tend to think and dream of him less and less.
